The fashion retailing market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $142.03 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing e-commerce penetration, adoption of AI-driven retail solutions, focus on sustainable fashion, expansion into emerging markets, integration of AR/VR shopping experiences. Major trends in the forecast period include rapid shift to omnichannel retailing, personalization and customization of fashion products, rise of fast fashion and trend-driven collections, adoption of experiential retail concepts, growth of influencer and social media marketing.
The rapid expansion of the working population is expected to drive growth in the fashion retailing market. This increase is due to demographic changes, urbanization, economic development, higher education levels, a growing female workforce, and immigration. Fashion retailing caters to the working population by providing convenient access to professional and stylish clothing that enhances confidence and suits workplace environments. For example, in June 2024, the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based government agency, reported that the total number of Workforce Jobs (WFJ) in the UK rose by 431,000 from the previous year, reaching 37.2 million in March 2024. Thus, the expanding working population is fueling the growth of the fashion retailing market.
Leading companies in the fashion retailing market are increasingly focusing on artificial intelligence (AI) to gain a competitive edge. AI applications in fashion retail use algorithms to create personalized shopping experiences, optimize inventory management, and enhance customer service. For instance, in May 2023, Zyler, a UK-based virtual fashion try-on company, introduced an AI-powered tool designed to personalize shopping experiences. This tool utilizes advanced AI to analyze customer preferences and body measurements, offering features such as customized outfit recommendations and virtual try-ons. This innovation provides a realistic and engaging shopping experience, improves customer satisfaction with tailored fashion suggestions, and helps retailers manage stock more effectively by understanding popular trends and sizes, thereby reducing overstock and stockouts.
In September 2023, Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Ltd., an India-based company with a diverse portfolio of brands in menswear, womenswear, and accessories, acquired a 51% stake in TCNS Clothing for $201.9 million.
